Nelly Furtado Opens Up About Daughter

Canadian singer/songwriter Nelly Furtado is putting the finishing touches on her fifth studio release, tentatively titled “Lifestyle,” and recently launched her own record label among other things. The 31-year-old Grammy Award-winning artist is also a doting mom to 6-year-old daughter Nevis, who appears to have her mothers love for music. In an interview with Flare magazine, Furtado opened up about her daughters personality and taste in music, saying,

She’s full of life and has a very strong will.” The proud mom then added, “She’s got cool musical tastes too – the other day she corrected me and said, ‘I knew about MGMT before you!'”

Nevis’ dad is Canadian DJ Jasper Gahunia (aka Lil’ Jazz) with whom she split in 2005. In July, she will celebrate her 2nd wedding anniversary with husband, Demo Castellón.
